Cuba Open to Additional Direct Talks With U.S.

By: Michelle Cole

In this article from the New York Times today, it says that Cuba is willing to continue talking about issues of migration, as well as with a postal service link between us and them. In addition to this, they said that they are willing to talk about drug issues, counter terrorism, and disaster relief issues. These talks are showing how Obama is trying to take steps to open up communication with Cuba, and how we are finally starting to be able to work with them.

The article goes on to talk about how Hillary Clinton was in Honduras talking about if Cuba would be allowed back in the Organization of American States. Clinton said she didn't see that happening until Havana adopted more democratic ways. Overall this article shows how we are starting to become more open to talking with Cuba, and hopefully we will be able to work something out with them to open up trade and communication with them.
